Orbi app is displaying many devices with weak signal
I actually have 1 RBR40 base and 3 RBS30 satellites in a 1250sq ft ranch with a basement. I have complete coverage throughout the house. Speeds are 250mbps give or take throughout the house. Usin...
I'm also rather puzzled by the signal strength indicators under WiFi analytics in the Orbi app (of which I have the latest version). I understand the dB reading on a scale of -95 to -17 and that, the lower the figure, the better. What I don't understand is the percentage below that, which sometimes shows 100% but can also drop as low as 50% when the dB figure still shows "okay". Is the percentage an indicator of signal to noise ratio? If not, what is it based on?
My Orbi system is an RBK752, installed a few days ago.
Thanks.
+1 on this issue. I recently purchased the Orbi 6000 WIFI 6 and went through a painful setup process. The app is tortoise slow and some times unresponsive. I could be standing right next to the router or satellite and show one bar of signal strength on the Orbi app. On my iPhone I show full strength. This is all with the latest IOS and Netgear software.
